I believe my Sutherlands are in Yates Co.,N.Y. too.my mother was Memory Sutherland, then her father was William Benjamin Sutherland, VP, acting Pres & CEO of S. H. Kress Co., his father was Benjamin James Sutherland, his father David James Sutherland (vet of G.A.R.), his father Robert Joseph Sutherland, his father Andrew Sutherland,II,his father was David Sutherland, II,his father was Andrew Sutherland,I, his father was David Sutherland , I, his father was William Sutherland who came 1684 to Orange Co.,NY from Scotland. (I don't think I left out any generations) anyway, David Sutherland, I and Andrew Sutherland,I and David Sutherland, II were all patriot s of the American Revolution and I think the David,II moved to Yates Co.NY and Andrew, II moved to Michigan.Sincerely, F.C.Johnson,III.Glad to share what little I have on them.
